They are a organisation that deal with newspapers, magazines and newspaper websites. They don't cover things subjects such as advertisements, books, blogs and you also have to be connected to the story to be able to make an official complaint.
Examples of each one
Sensationalism - London Riots
The lodon riots would be a good example. This is becasue it causes a large sense of violence
Libel - The sun tells us that Beynce's baby isnt really Jay Z's.
This is a good example as it is made up and so it isn't true but its about a celebrity so that people would want to read about it as they believe its true,
Innaccurate reporting - Adele has cancer.
This was reported however it wasn't true as the actual problem was loose skin particles in her throat.
Offensive material - Look how much wait cheryl cole has put on (disgusting photo)
This would be considered offensive material as she will be offeneded and its a photo to cause reaction from the public.
Chequebook Journalism -
Privacy and Paparazzi - Justin bieber swears at paparazzi.
This would be a good example as he is being annoyed by the paparazzi and they are taking advantage of the mood that he is in to make him look bad.
Negative Representation - Kim Kardashian's wedding is over after only 72 days.
They havent told her side of the story and it makes her look extremely bad.
Public right to know - Harry and caroline are back on.
This isn't a right for the public to know but because they want it thats what the papers give them.
On the PCC website (http://www.pcc.org.uk/complaints/makingacomplaint.html) it shows the 5 steps to make a complaint. Here is a screeenshot of that section.
